DANGEROUS BLOOD SUGAR
LEVELS
What are the dangerous blood sugar levels? How to recognize these levels? What are the
warning signs of dangerous blood sugar levels?
All these are the big question marks in the minds of diabetics. If you have the same
queries; then just relax. Stress is the biggest enemy in your battle against diabetes. The stressed body
produces certain hormones that increase the level of blood sugar. These hormones also hinder the insulin
function. As a result the blood sugar level increases to help the body fight against the stressed situation.
These levels are considered dangerous blood sugar levels.
If a person is diabetic it means that its blood sugar level is normally high. Stress
and wrong eating habits add more sugar to the blood and the levels turn to dangerous blood sugar
levels.
